Question 1: When your laptop’s battery is 100% charged, should you leave it plugged in so any battery power doesn’t get used, or will that cause overcharging, overheating, etc.? Should the laptop be unplugged when the battery level is 100%?

 Question 2: When I’m at home, is it better to use the laptop plugged into AC power, or with just the battery, for the overall battery life?

Should you leave your laptop plugged in and charging when you’re not on-the-go? What’s best for the battery? What’s best for your user experience? Read on 

I am quite sure most of us must have been curious about the above questions. Well lets discuss what is best for your laptop batteries.

Answers:


The answer to the question isn’t a cut and dry “Yes, leave it tethered” or “No, unplug it”  because of the variety of laptop designs, their battery types, and the integrated charging circuit that recharges the battery. That said, the insights provided by SuperUser contributors cover the most common scenarios laptop owners will come across. Contributor Charles Roper writes:


It won’t make all that much difference. What will shorten battery life is temperature: If it gets hot, it will shorten the battery life. Best thing to do, if you are able, is to remove the battery while you’re at home and keep it somewhere cool.

Android vs iPhone vs Windows: Which is best?

The smartphone world is notoriously divisive, with Apple-worshipping ‘fanboys’ on one end of the spectrum and Android-obsessed ‘phandroids’ on the other. The smaller Windows Phone OS has similarly militant supporters who don’t yet have a collective name, and you should ignore all of them.

We’ve explained the main advantages and disadvantages of each of the three main mobile operating systems below.

Buy an Android smartphone if…
…you want a wide range of options. The Android operating system offers a better balance of variety and affordability than its rivals, due to the sheer diversity of Android smartphone manufacturers. Some flagship models, like the LG G3, are available for less than 30,000  Naira, while you can also find something less flashy but equally excellent for less than 20,000Naira.

In Google Play, Android has the largest selection of apps and games too, but there’s a lot of rubbish mixed in with the good stuff. Overall, it’s a great operating system and it’s certainly the best option if you’d rather not spend big money on a shiny new smartphone.

Buy an iPhone if…
…money is no object. iPhones are the most expensive smartphones you can buy, and the last-generation iPhone 5S will still set you back close to £500. However, design is always on-point, meaning that the iPhone is as much gadget as it is fashion item.

Apple’s App Store isn’t quite as populated as Google Play, but its restrictions are tighter, meaning that the overall quality of iOS games and apps is higher than what you’ll find on Android. It’s also a great option if you own other Apple gadgets, like MacBooks and iPads, as the tightly integrated services make life easy.

Buy a Windows Phone smartphone if…
…you value consistency in style. Windows Phone mobiles are instantly recognisable, thanks to the use of a single design blueprint. They’re all angular with clean corners and edges, and the choice of colours you get is far more vibrant and exciting than what you’ll find elsewhere. What’s more, there are a lot of cheap Windows Phone models available.

Unfortunately, the Windows Phone app store is tiny in comparison to those of Android and iOS. There are hundreds of thousands of apps and games available, but some favourites like Snapchat and Citymapper are still nowhere to be seen.
